Volume 5, The Three Realms of the Stars and the Moon_Chapter 126, The Crow
Izanami fell silent, even a little faltering. Amaterasu saw hope, but at this moment, the old man of the Abe family suddenly took control of his body and shouted, "You hesitated? Do you remember what you promised me? I paid the price, and now it's time for you to repay me. Remember your agony when you were trapped in the Black Dragon Land and burned by the flames of hell? Remember the hatred that once surged in your heart? You swore to make them pay, you swore to take all the power into our hands as long as I rescued you. Now, are you going to break your word? Or do you want to go back to the depths of hell? Don't forget, the bodies of these two gods in front of you still have Izanagi's divine power flowing through them! ”
The last sentence had a terrible effect, and the spirit that had just relented and even wanted to give up finally no longer hesitated, but became even more crazy. At the same time, the figure disappeared in the gray mist, and Amaterasu shouted, "Mother, mother, listen to me, mother ......"
However, it was already too late, and the old man turned around and shouted, "Activate the second function of the circle and suck these two ancient gods dry." From now on, I will be the greatest god! Leave their spirits ......"
At this time, he turned his head to look at Ashiya Cliff and Abe Izukawa, and smiled gloomily: "Their spirits are a gift from me to you, I said that follow me, and you will be one person under ten thousand people." Possession of a divine soul is equivalent to having the qualification to become a god, and you will join me in creating a new era of mythology throughout Japan, and we will rule over everything. ”
I was constantly injured under the attack of the crows, and the pain of tearing and the fear of sneaking into my body constantly tormented me. The curled up body couldn't last long, and I didn't have any power to protect myself in the illusion.
After this attack continued for a while, perhaps because of the pain and fear, I began to have strange fragments of memories or hallucinations.
It seems like where...... I've seen flocks of crows like this before.
Closing your eyes, the red light, the flapping of the crows' wings, and the crazy will suddenly silence everything. I heard no movement outside, so I slowly opened my eyes, and when the light from outside shot into my eyes, I felt a stinging wind on my skin, and the screams were incessant, and the skylight of the fire reflected the sky in my eyes. Lots of black crows hovering overhead, it's not my memory but it feels so real. Visionary hallucinations, I turned my head and saw that the village not far away was set ablaze by fire, and I was lying behind a solid and huge rock, and the terrible youkai rushed into the village and destroyed everything. Dead bodies were everywhere, rivers of blood flowed, and even the air smelled disgusting. The yokai are laughing wildly, and the tragedy of death is constantly happening. Among the black crows, a cold figure was watching all this indifferently, as if watching a show, as if looking at a group of killed ants on the ground. And this person I actually knew, I had hallucinations in the past, and even turned myself into a child who didn't know what age it was. And in that vision, I once met the man in front of me, and he asked me to read an ancient scroll, and I was amazed that I could understand the meaning. And today's massacre, he seems to be the initiator.
Not far away, a woman in a animal skin ran towards me in a panic, several monsters were following behind her, the woman kept running towards me, she wanted to hide behind the rocks but before she could run over, the monster chased after her and fell to the ground. Then a monster clawed the poor woman's neck apart, and I was about to help, but then I realized that I was not the only one hiding behind the rock.
A thin, short figure was lying close to me, a boy who looked to be only three or four years old. To the astonishment, his skin was whiter than that of the woman who died on the ground not far away, almost transparent, and the color of his hair turned out to be golden. Even at this moment, in the absence of the sun, you can see how beautiful his hair must be. I looked at him, and he seemed completely unaware of my stranger's presence, his immature eyes peering out through the cracks in the stone, his eyes full of hatred and hostility. I leaned over and tried to speak to him, but he didn't answer after a few consecutive calls. I couldn't resist reaching out to touch him, and at that moment, he seemed to sense something and turned to look at me.
Our eyes were together, two completely different people looking at each other, but suddenly I felt something in my heart, and it was like a person who had never looked in the mirror since he was born and finally looked in the mirror one day. It was as if I was looking at myself for what I really was, and all I saw in the past was an illusion.
"How can you feel like this?" The doubts in my heart caused huge mood swings.
He quickly looked away, as if he didn't even look at me and didn't see that I was standing in front of him. Then he lay on the ground again and looked out, and at this moment, the slaughter of the monsters was over, and hundreds of terrifying demons returned to the person in the sky, waving their claws and bloody clubs and screaming wildly, and a feast of wanton killing and blood came to an end.
The man in the sky glanced around, frowned slightly, but said nothing, and stepped on the backs of the flocks of crows and slowly flew towards us. This guy looks like a very profound monster, and the little blonde boy next to me is probably the only survivor of this slaughtered village, and since I can't watch him killed here, even if it's a hallucination. But I can't cast my spell now, and I see that the crows are about to fly to the back of the huge rock. I was in a hurry, and the thought popped into my head: if this was my hallucination, at least give me a chance to control my hallucination. I may be dying in a hallucination, but before that I can do so, I must change my hallucinations, whether this little boy is real or not.
Staring at the man in the sky, his mind began to work. It's silly to say, I just want to change something with my own mind, and even kill the man in the sky directly, but it's like a child staring at the soup spoon in his hand, thinking that the soup spoon can be bent. But that's all I can do, with strange thoughts in my heart, and if my mind is strong enough, I can change everything I see.
The crows were getting closer and closer, and the boy remained motionless, not knowing whether he was stupid or discouraged.
At the last moment, strange lights began to appear in the distant sky, scattered at first, but soon concentrated into a single beam. As if God had opened his eyes, the light from heaven shone on the crows, and the crows seemed to be frightened and uncontrollable. The man standing on the back of the crow flock was furious, and with a roar of rage, there were huge black wings growing from his back, which looked like the wings of a giant eagle, but they were much larger than the eagle's wings. I grew wings and flew into the air, and then released black gas in my hand, this black gas enveloped the panicked crows in front of me, and in an instant the crows fell from the sky one by one as if they had been shot down, and two of them rolled not far in front of me, and I knew that they were dead at a glance!
The surrounding monsters immediately fell to their knees, obviously terrified by the man's action. The man flew in the air, looked indifferently at everyone kneeling below, waved his hand and turned to shake his wings to leave. The youkai on the ground hurriedly followed, hurrying towards the forest in the distance. Once they were gone, I and the kid hiding behind the rocks were safe.
I let out a sigh of relief, was that light just now the result of my mind altering hallucination? Or is it just a coincidence, just a strange light shooting down from the sky? I can't say this either, and just as I was about to try to communicate with the boy again, there was another chaotic sound in my ears, accompanied by the sound of wings flapping and the terrible sound of claws tearing at the muscles and skin. Everything I could see before my eyes changed again, and darkness drifted like mist.
I suddenly opened my eyes, and all I could see was the red light and the crows reflected in the red light, and I woke up from my hallucination and returned to the realm of illusions!
"If you go on like this, you're going to die...... "I know it very well in my heart, but there is no way to do it right now. It was then that I thought of the light that I had seen in my hallucination from the sky, and if that light was really my mind and had the ability to defeat a flock of crows, then if I could use it in this hallucination, I might be able to get me out of trouble. But can it succeed? I held my head, even if I was skeptical in my heart, but the current situation did not allow me to think about it too much, a dead horse should be a live horse doctor, this is the only way for me to say at present!
